# What Is a Space

Spaces can be thought of as work areas, containing projects linked by a particular logic. Usually, spaces are used to define teams and connect different departments. Invite your colleagues to collaborate on your Space and assign roles and permissions to create seamless workflows for your projects.

{% hint style="info" %}
*The number of Spaces and Rules you can create, the users you can invite is determined by your Subscription.*
{% endhint %}

## First steps

In order to create your business rules you will need your workspace. One Space will be automatically created when you register your account, so you can start transforming your business logic into decision rules right away.

## Space description

Each Space has its own dashboard, its own API keys, and its own business rules. Each Space is operated by users with specific roles and generates audit logs for individual rules, in addition, relevant information about the Space can be saved and manage.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://academy.decisionrules.io/spaces/what-is-a-space.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
